Ah. I just assumed if two users were the same age, it listed them together but only put the age once.

Funny it was almost accurate.

Vega Stage incoming on the 30th! All of these classic nods should be making vintage fans (Alpha Flight) very happy!

Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist

Films based on video games I normally avoid. On this occasion I decided to give Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist a chance. At over 2hrs 30mins, the story is quite long. Much of the time is filled with chitter chat, and Ken & Ryu training at a Dojo. There are a couple of fights, but not nearly enough, although what fights there are, are filled with moves you’d expect to see during the video game. The Hadoken (fireball) special FX look particularly impressive. Both Ken & Ryu are played brilliantly, particularly Ken you looks remarkably like Ken from Street Fighter II Turbo. Other characters to appear include Akuma and Gouken. Sadly no sign of Chun-Li. All in all, a pretty decent effort.
I've just discovered there is a followed up, Street Fighter: Resurrection. Not out yet on Blu-ray, although probably aired on TV. Ken and Ryu are back, surprisingly they've introduced Laura Matsuda. No sign of Chun-Li, as far as i'm aware. Maybe the idea of attempting to show Chun-Li perform the upside-down helicopter kick is infeasible

This is not a follow up to assassins fist. This is something capcom wanted them to make quickly in time for the release of SFV. This short is basically a prelude to SFV.

While it is not a direct follow up, as it takes place further into the future, and like you said, based around SFV, it does star the same actors who played Ken and Ryu in the original mini series, and without checking IMDb, presumably involved those who were involved in the original series.

Yes it's directed by Joey Ansah. He was the man behind assassins fist and also played Akuma so when capcom approached him to do this short, of course he was going to bring Mike Moh and Christian Howard on board. Again not a follow up though as that will be the World Warrior series that is still in the works!
